“Are you almost ready? You’re going to make us late!” Luther called from the living room. I checked my reflection in the mirror for the final time. My black dress fit along my curves, the off the shoulder sleeves accentuating my cleavage. I kept my makeup dark and sultry, and simply twisted my hair up and pinned it with a hair clip as a few loose tendrils framed my face. I wasn’t sure how to dress when it came to meeting the head of the mafia, but I did know that cameras would be on me the minute I walked out of this hotel now that the paparazzi had gotten word that I was here. When I was satisfied with how I looked, I opened the bedroom door and met him. His eyes widened when he saw me, a slight smirk on his lips. “You trying to get me killed tonight?”

I frowned. “Killed? Why would you be killed?” I looked down at myself. “You think it’s too much?”

“Because I’m sure I’m going to have to kill someone for looking at you for too long and then the mafia will probably kill me.” His eyes slid along my form. “You’re fucking gorgeous tonight, pretty girl.”

I blushed, unable to stop the smile that settled onto my lips. “Don’t be ridiculous, Luther. But thank you. I’m just trying to make a good impression on your future boss.”

“You sure you’re just trying to make an impression or are you trying to climb up the ladder and bypass the member and seduce the mafia boss?” he teased as he approached me, wrapping an arm around my waist.

“I’m pretty content with the bad guy I already have in my life,” I said as I smiled up at him, my mind thinking about our intimate moments earlier. “Besides, I don’t think he can make me come the way you do.”

“You’re goddamn right about that, pretty girl,” he said and kissed me. “Let’s get going then. We don’t want to be late.”

I threaded my fingers with his as he led me to the door, the security already waiting for us in the hallway. When we got onto the elevator, I glanced at Luther’s outfit. He wore what he always did, a black fitting t-shirt, black jeans, and black Converse sneakers. I couldn’t help but to smile at myself. While I was always worried about my appearance and how people would perceive me, Luther had a “what you see is what you get” vibe with him where he never tried to impress anyone, no matter who they were.

"Is something funny?" Luther asked all of a sudden.

“I just thought it was funny that I got all dressed up and you’re wearing what you would wear on any regular day. Don’t you want to make a good impression on your new boss?”

He frowned at me. “I don’t think it matters what I wear when I’m approaching him to talk about becoming a hitman for him.”

“I guess you make a fair point.”

“Besides, I don’t even know if he’ll agree to help us.
